Brace Yourself - Embellishments Warning!

Afternoon all. How are you? We are waiting for a friend's husband to arrive with a tool box to see if he can do anything with our tumble drier that has developed a really annoying squealing noise ..... keep your fingers crossed he can work his magic on it!

Toad is busy bottling his latest batch of home brew. Honestly, we will have so much beer by Christmas that we might have to apply for a licence.

And so to today's card. And yes, it does have embellishments. But not too many!

Fab card as always just my kinda style though mine never look quite this good.Hope the dryer stops whining, I'm fed up of stuff breaking first the boiler started playing up and as it was put in in 1989 hubby decided we ought to invest in a new one just to make sure it was warm for Andrew when the cold weather arrives his CP does affect his circulation and he feels cold really easy. Then the main computer went pop apparently that needs a new power supply then my oven died last Sunday fortunately just as I took the roast out ! I know they say things come in 3's but definitely 3 I could do without.

If all else fails you could drink the home-brew and you'll not hear the whining tumble drier.

hahahahahaha was thinking you had inherited my genes lol, but I see you are still okay, thank heavens. Such a pretty card love the pink and yellow combo and the sweet little flowers and bunting perfectly finished off with those pearls, love itHugs Kate xx

This is gorgeous Squirrel, love the pretty colours :D hope your drier is fixed soon, our washing machine is broken and we've been waiting on the fixer man for WEEKS. No joke, since the start of september. good thing my sister lives right next door or I'd be pretty smelly by now hahaha.

Getting Inky

I use Distress Inks (ReInkers) as watercolours to paint my images. That's with a real brush and real water. This capricious medium does not give the same results each time, so if you are looking for marker pen perfection, you won't find it here!

Such an honour!

About Me

Hi There! I'm Squirrel and have been crafting forever but only papercrafting since 2005. I am TOTALLY addicted to rubber stamping and painting with Distress Inks (ReInkers). I share my life with my darling husband, Mr Toad, and Rosie, the tabby with cattitude. My beloved cat, Vince (see photos below) is missed every day. I work full time in the legal profession which doesn't leave me much free time to play but I still manage a card or two each week! Thanks for dropping by and spending time with me, I hope you enjoyed your visit enough to want to come back again.
